God's Promise

god's promise is 
he will be back to combine heaven and earth
and he will be the first

and then the world will be the best place to be

False Reflection

Stop trying to be a poet,
  and say what you feel

Kill off the dilettante,
  both hands on the wheel

In front of the mirror,
  we all wear a crown

Will your verses be written
  —by a sage or a clown

Dead Winter

wind blast cold to bone
plants, animals frozen stiff

Predator East Wind

PREDATOR  EAST WIND



Her  skeletal penetrating fingers
Find a cold way into the least crack with ease.
Burst pipes with sorcerous  wand.
Silently freeze the pond
With  her sly icy feast of water. 
Will kill off last year’s life; can
Pry the warm flesh off old autumn
Leaves  - only cold bones.

Where I Bleed

I caught the Muse having an affair….
  with my banished and cursed darker side

I could hear them laughing inside me,
  such lovemaking I cannot abide

A tryst most unwelcome though familiar,
  my dreams left abandoned of sleep

To kill off the one, I must kill off the other
 —alone in the night where I bleed

My Bloody Valentine

My bloody valentine,
Sweet, deadly valentine,
You make me smile in that dress.

Your looks are cold as ice;
Demeanor, not so nice,
Yet you're my favorite torturess.

Is your figure without fault?
In my wounds, you pour the salt,
But you know that by default
I’ll say yes.

So kill off all humankind;
If you don’t leave me, I won’t mind.
Stay, little valentine, stay,
Or I’ll die when you go away.

Good Luck Monsanto

my voice quakes with the gnashing of teeth, my breath sulfur and firey embers. 
beneath the weight of my powerful paws, the entire solar system strains and bruises. 
i shake with the force of a mighty wind, my ropes of fur spreading out and latching onto the plantation of the worlds on which i stand. 
and they constrict, and they choke out, and they kill off. 

i plague the system. 

my essence is satisfied; the purpose of my being.

Delicate Flowers

All flowers have feelings
In actual fact
It takes lots of loving 
To keep them intact
They need looking after
With blood sweat and toil
And water and feeding
Improving the soil
Keep out the weeds
That will want to attack
Kill off the flies
Either white or the black
Talk to them daily
Play them some sounds
See them improve
Both in leaps and in bounds
Be kind to your flowers
Try not to neglect
Be nice to your flowers
And you’ll gain their respect

A Horse, a Horse, of Course, of Course

A Horse, A Horse, Of Course, Of Course

For horses, horse flies,
For humans, shame,
But horses don't kill off
The halt and the lame.
It's apples and oranges.
My, what a surprise.
Horses don't deal in
Deception ... and lies.
Just stop and think.
A no-brainer ... of course.
To have a clear conscience,
One needs be a horse.



 from a poem by Jane Hirshfield


I have permission to use the phrase from her poem, and she signed the original of this poem, which I still have.
